| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears the crowned Portuguese royal shield of arms, displaying the five quinas (escutcheons charged with five bezants each) arranged in a cross pattern, surrounded by a bordure of castles, all within an inner circle. The royal crown surmounts the shield directly above. Two small annulets flank the shield at either side within the inner circle. The peripheral Latin legend, separated by pellet stops, continues the royal titulature of Manuel I. The hammered flan exhibits characteristic irregularity in shape and surface texture consistent with late 15th to early 16th century Portuguese minting practice. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Manuel I inherited the Portuguese throne in 1495 at a moment when Vasco da Gama's India voyage was already in preparation, and the Crown's fiscal demands on the Lisbon and Porto mints intensified sharply throughout his reign as spice trade revenues required coinage infrastructure to match. The Porto mint — identified here by the •P• mark — operated with periodic interruptions during this period, making its output generally scarcer than contemporary Lisbon issues.
The Gothic M designation distinguishes this early type from the later Manueline issues, placing it within the first phase of his coinage reform.
